Not really.
For every AV weapon there should be an equally larger calibre weapon with more destructive force available to vehicle users. Why? Because that's simply the point of mounting weapons on vehicles.
An infantryman could not carry the weight of the equipment so you put it on a mechanical hull that will.

You could just work with 6 and have each round deal 1092 direct damage, with a RoF of 60, and a splash radius of 1m.
Couple that with something like 224-273 splash damage and you have an EVE blaster in Dust.

Do want.
Which is why you would reduce the rate of fire of the rounds, decrease their splash radius. But there is no real issue with how they function as a Hybrid Blaster Turret.

Even with your hardeners I've carved out a third of your shields, and you don't have those running 24/7. "Just a Scratch" my ass.
I've killed Gunnies just fine with the PLC, even with a non D-modded non galcom suit I've hunted down gunnies perfectly fine with a Proto Cal Scout with a proto PLC. It doesn't exactly hit lightly, especially if I open you up with a flux first.
Gunnies are OP, but not that OP.
Eh I'd simply reverse, skew slightly in a direction and spend the entirety of the time I'm doing that locating you and firing upon you. Then it simply comes down to whether you are more accurate or luck is on my side.
